Preface Spectacular advancements have been made in our knowledge of chromatin structure and function in recent years. The recent development of several novel technologies to interrogate various biological processes has impacted the field of chromatin biology in a remarkable fashion. Thus, the ability to sequence large stretches of DNA, the enhanced capabilities to study protein-DNA interactions at very high resolutions, novel techniques to study histone modifications and other epigenetic changes have all shed new light on our understanding of chromatin structure as well as processes like transcriptional regulation, DNA replication and repair. In addition, the ability to edit genes using CRISPR/CAS technology has opened up new avenues and meth
